New year new skincare. How I changed up my routine Garnier Moisture Bomb



If you've been living under a rock for the last few months you won't have seen the hubbub about the Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask. I've talked about budget sheet masks in the past but this is the first one I've seen available in the UK that didn't have to be imported. At £1.50 per mask it was a big deal. I didn't jump on the bandwagon though because I've never had much luck with Garnier products before and I had quite the backlog of masks to go through myself. 

Then I saw this set available at Christmas from Tesco. The set contained a 3-in-1 day cream and a gel formula night cream plus retailing separately at £7.99 each plus one of the famous sheet masks. 

The set was £7.50. 

Had to be done!

Now the mask itself I was not impressed with. For something that boasts 7 days worth of serum in one go I did not expect to feel dry immediately after. Thankfully this is a team effort and I immediately applied the night cream. It was a revelation. The silicone based formula (we all know how much I love silicone!) means that the product glides over the skin so you feel an immediate difference whilst all of the pomegranite and other fruit extracts (found in all three products) take care of the long term effects. It is definitely "the bomb"! 

I wasn't expecting to but I love these products on my skin and I actually look forward to applying the night cream every evening. As with all skin care I trialled the two moisturisers daily for about a month adding the mask in mid month to get an idea of how it would work with the other products. I may not be fussed on the mask itself but I will definitely be repurchasing the two moisturisers. It's rare that I find a high street moisture range that actually packs the punch that they promise to pack but in my opinion Garnier have really struck it right with these two.

BOOM.

  1. I love Garnier micellar water with oil, it's one of my all time favs above high end cleansers but I too don't do well with Garnier moisturisers etc either so will look out for the night cream moisture bomb x x

"Brand New Mint In Box"

Of the ways to describe the most premium of items in your makeup collection "Brand New Mint In Box" should not be one of them. One of my most awful habits is buying makeup and then not using it and to my even greater shame it is usually with my most expensive purchases. There is an Alan Carr joke about the extortionate price of a Spanish Onion, the punchline is "when do you save an Onion for best?" This is kind of how I feel about expensive makeup. It's so pretty and so precious that if I get up the courage to actually purchase it, I'm then usually too scared to use it. The pride and shame of this habit is these two items from Dior.  The absolutely sublime Dior Skin Nude Tan highlighter which I purchased as a pre-release special edition from House Of Fraser TWO YEARS AGO has sat in box all tightly wrapped up only being shown the light to show off to my friends and family. Yes I do show off my prettiest of pretties to my friends and family...

No Halloween Costume Needed

It's become an accepted norm that once December 1st comes around the nations will don their snowflake print leggings and their novelty jumpers but so far the other seasons are lacking in their effort. Yes, Halloween is famous as being the single greatest costume day of the year but I need October to step and represent in the seasonal apparel game.  Thankfully retailers have heard my inner goth cry and have come up with some seriously cute Halloween inspired items. For those who love a slogan tee you have every variation of saying that could possibly be made by rhyming witch with bitch and if you don't say every one of with Emma Roberts' attitude then you need to watch season 3 of American Horror Story immediately!   Dressing with the seasons is clearly big money but it doesn't have to cost the world. Here are my choices of how to get into the Halloween spirit all under £30.  Boohoo Starting with my favourites because I can! I actually bought the f
